All Chapters of One Night With Alpha Ace: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

NATALIE'S POV Ace's hand trembled on the gun and he lowered his hands to his side. He didn't glance at me but rather kept his gaze firmly trained on the woman who lay before us. Her usually full and shiny dark hair matted against her forehead haggardly and her lips had lines and were dry. Georgina Gomez looked nothing like what the media portrayed her as all those years ago. I was pretty sure Ace didn't do her bad like this so what happened? Georhine let out a dry cough and crawled a bit closer to Ace and I. Her hands reached out to grab Ace and I's leg but on instinct, I flinched and stepped back while Ace remained frozen. "Please," she wheezed, voice sounding scratchy against my ear, "Help me," she begged. For what? I wasn't sure. I was still trying to process what was happening when her raised head dropped onto the ground sharply, making a loud thud. Ace finally gave a reaction and maybe instinctively, he reached out to grab her but wasn't quick enough as her head already hit t

NATALIE "So we can all agree Ace doesn't know what he's doing, right?" I asked, after Jayden finished speaking. "Yup," Sophia replied, looking at me. "So what do we do?" "Send Georgina away? Without Ace knowing?" Emily suggested eagerly. She was sitting opposite me, rubbing her baby bump slowly. I don't even know who invited her to this meeting. "Your opinion wasn't seeked, Emily," I said bitterly. She glanced at me. "Well excuse for trying to help the woman who's husband has eyes for everything with a fucking pussy!" Emily jabbed. My hand slammed down hard on the table, startling everyone. "Calm down. This is about Ace, not you two's animosity," Ava said, rolling her eyes. I glared at her then clenched my fist to stop myself from saying anything that'd make matters worse. "Fine," I murmured. "Do we have a plan?" "What about what she suggested?" Ava asked, pointing at Emily. "It won't work. Ace feels the strong urge to protect Georgina. We can't just kick her out without a sol

NATALIE "Come out, Natalie," Ace sighed out, running a hand through his already messy hair. I shook my head and folded my arms across my chest. "No." "Natalie, we've been staying here for almost 30 minutes. At this rate, we'll miss the whole party," he complained. "I already gave you my jacket, what more do you want?" He asked, exhausted to his core. "I want a change of clothes. Something to cover all this!" I said, pointing at all the marks on my neck and chest. Ace grinned wolfishly. "It passes across a statement. And, we'll be late if you go for a changr of clothes. Natalie, don't be stubborn. I'll count to three and if you're not out, I'll carry you inside in my fucking arms," he threatened. Not that I was doubting Ace but I really didn't believe he could do it. "You can't," I scoffed. "Watch me," he said, stepping out of the car. My heart pounded faster against my ribcage when I saw

NATALIE Ace was in his study barking orders and screaming his head off. Ava lay on the bed before me as her body tried to recuperate. Jayden was standing by the door. Georgina was nowhere to be found. And I, I was here still trying to wrap my head around everything. "Read Sophia's letter. Now," Ava rasped out, opening her eyes slowly. Jayden stretched and moved swiftly to her side. Ava tried to sit up but he pushed her back down. "Rest, Ava," he said. Ava shook her head as she looked at me. "She said to tell you to read it as soon as possible. It's important," Ava continued. I glanced at Jayden and he nodded at me. I stood up to go to my room for privacy. I brought out the letter and read through it. The first word I saw there was 'light'. Strange. It was mostly filled with how she was sorry she didn't tell me goodbye and to take care. "There's nothing here," I murmured, turning the paper. As I turned it, sunlight flashed on a part of it and Tania gasped within me. She clawed at m

NATALIE "Rise and shine, princess," Ace whispered in my ear. I groaned and turned around. "Open your eyes," he whispered. I grumbled as I turned the other way again. Ace made a tsk sound then I heard the sound of footsteps. Everywhere got quiet for a moment before I felt cold as ice water on me. "Fucking Goddess," I yelled, straightening up and rubbing my eyes. Ace smirked as he came to my front. I saw red before anything else. "You, idiot. How dare you do that to me? I swear, when I'm done with you—" I said, rushing to hit him. Ace skillfully caught both my hands in his and looked at me devilishly. "You'll what?" He asked, raising a brow. My anger began to clear and I finally noticed something. Ace was shirtless. My cheeks heated up as I struggled to get out of his grip. "Nothing, I was just blabbing. Sleep. I'm still sleepy," I stuttered. Ace chuckled as he let go of my hand. He walked to the bedside table and picked up a glass of water then looked at
